About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated on the northern edge of Downtown St. Louis and directly adjacent to the historic Laclede’s Landing district, the 201-399 Carr St Parking facility offers spacious, easily accessible open-air surface parking. Because this facility is an outdoor lot with no overhead barriers or low ceilings, it provides unobstructed vertical clearance. This makes it an ideal option not only for standard sedans, compact cars, and crossovers, but also for oversized vehicles, full-size pickup trucks, commercial vans, and vehicles equipped with roof racks or cargo carriers that often struggle to fit into multi-level downtown parking decks.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During high-profile conventions, national stadium tours, and major holidays around the Gateway Arch, nearby street parking fills rapidly. Arrive at least 45 to 60 minutes before your scheduled event to guarantee a space and navigate pedestrian corridors smoothly. If you plan to attend an evening show or late-night casino entertainment, take note of your exact space location or drop a pin on your mobile map, and ensure all personal belongings are stored safely out of sight inside your locked vehicle.
